Solo – scaffold a production SaaS, then run its operations autonomously

Solo is a platform that helps developers quickly scaffold a production-ready SaaS application and autonomously handles operations like authentication, payments, deployment, monitoring, and marketing. It uses an open stack with no lock-in and supports a hybrid build model. Currently in private beta.
